+ | ====== 8x P-channel MOSFET - Wemos D1/S2 mini controlled - Version C3 ====== | ||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Inspiration by [[https:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | Q: What is this board good for? | ||
+ | A: Automotive use - as this board turns power on/off on the plus wire | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====What is still the same as the Original board:==== | ||
+ | * size of board is exactly the same (80mm x 104mm) | ||
+ | * position of the corner screw holes are exactly the same | ||
+ | * GND is still a part of the corner mounts | ||
+ | * position of (screw holes for) the 8x P-channel MOSFETs are exactly the same | ||
+ | * it is still possible to use the 7805 chip to convert from 12V to 5V (though a DC-DC convert option is added) | ||
+ | * it is still possible to manually activate a MOSFET using a DIP switch | ||
+ | * it is still possible to use the "Wemos D1 mini" as the MCU controller (though a "Wemos S2 mini" is now optional) | ||
+ | * it is still possible to use the very nice 45-degree-angled spring-loaded high-amp Molex connectors | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ====What is changed (or added):==== | ||
+ | * for low amp boards, 3mm holes to hold the MOSFETs in place has been added | ||
+ | * at the DIP switch, holes have been added (for ease of adding external (miniature relay) control of a channel) | ||
+ | * using 0805 size components (are easier to hand solder) | ||
+ | * because gerber import (to a different design software) was not complete/ | ||
+ | * added IDC 10-pin option (for easy connect/ | ||
+ | * added extra pin rows so the dual rows of the "Wemos S2 mini" (ESP32 27-pin) controller connects to the board | ||
+ | * 8 of the extra S2 pins are available as an 8-pin IO connector | ||
+ | * added an option to use a switch-mode '12V -> 5V DC-DC converter' | ||
+ | * added a 5V pin-connector at the bottom edge of the board | ||
+ | * added a GND screw-terminal/ | ||
+ | * added solder stripes to the bottom layer - so additional copper strips can be soldered to the board (2x 64amp strips can be added) | ||
+ | * additional power-in connectors/ | ||
+ | * option to use screw-held ring-eye-lets as power-out connectors | ||
+ | * added a DHT22 connection header (S2 mini option on pin D21) | ||
+ | * option for external 12V power-in going to 12V -> 5V converter - so a simple on/off signal can remove power from the MCU (and thus can turn the entire board OFF) - in low-battery-voltage situations | ||
+ | * option to dedicate one of the MOSFETs to control the 12V power going to the C3 boards - so a simple on/off signal can remove power from all the MCUs on all the C3 boards (and thus can turn OFF all the C3 boards) - in low-battery-voltage situations | ||
+ | * added a 100nF capacitor to the A0 analog input (might help stabilize the analog reading a little bit) | ||
